Allard was lit up by the Braves in mop-up duty Sunday night, allowing five earned runs on eight hits across three frames. That brought his ERA for the season up to an ugly 10.38 through 8 2/3 innings, leading the Guardians to DFA the lefty to make room for Hunter Gaddis' (forearm) return from the IL.

Kolby Allard had his contract selected from Triple-A Columbus by the Guardians on Monday and will join the Cleveland pitching staff.

Fantasy Impact

Allard inked a minor league deal with the Guardians in February and opened the season in Triple-A Columbus. However, the veteran lefthander gets an early call-up after posting a 4.05 ERA in 13.1 innings this spring. Allard had a fine first season in Cleveland last year, posting a career-best 2.63 ERA in 65 innings. The southpaw will primarily come out of the Guardians' bullpen, but can also be called upon to start in a pinch.
